mdm. everything Flashcards
what determines the electric field behaviour
- direction of deflection (charge)
- angle of deflection
what is the angle of deflection changed by
- the magnitude of particle: determined by charge and mass
what are the three laws to explain electronic configurations
- Aufbom (4s>3d)
- Hund’s ( minimise inter-electronic repulsion)
- Pauli Exclusion
what did the pauli exclusion theory explain
2 electrons of opposite spins will counterbalance the electrical repulsion (from identical charges)
what affects the electrostatic effects
- number of electronic shells
- nuclear charge
- shielding effect
what does electronegativity depend on
the electrostatic forces of attraction between the nucleus and valence electrons
what does the ionic bond strength depend on
- charge (from electrostatic attraction)
- radius/size (inter-ionic dist)
what determines the strength of metallic bonds
- number of valence electrons available
- cation charges
- cation sizes
what is the bond angle affeted by
electronegativity and number of lone pair electrons
describe idid moments
momentary movements of electrons in particles will cause the electron density to be unsymmetrical: instantaneous dipole will induce a dipole on neighbouring particles, which attraction is short-lived as the electrons keep moving and the dipoles vanish and reform
what affects idid
- number of electrons/electron cloud size (size and ease of polarisability)
- surface area for molecular interaction (straight chains>branched)
what is hydrogen bonding
the highly electronegative hydrogen atom can form a particularly strong attraction with lone pair electrons on adjacent molecules and the intermolecular FOA= hydrogen bonding
what is covalent bond strength
average energy required to break one mole of a particular bond in gaseous state
what affects the covalent bond strength
- effectiveness of overlap
- number of bonds between the atom
- bond polarity
what are the effects of hydrogen bonding (IMFOA)
- explain diff in b.p of grp 4, 5, 6
- b.p of NH3 and HF
- open structure of ice
- dimerisation of carboxylic acids
